Young Musicians Unite to Celebrate Macao’s 25th Anniversary

In a vibrant fusion of tradition and youth, musicians from Hong Kong, Macao, the Taiwan region, and the Chinese mainland teamed up to perform the iconic Guangdong melody 'Bu Bu Gao' (Higher Step by Step) . The collaboration, featuring students from Beijing’s Central Conservatory of Music, marked the 25th anniversary of Macao’s return to China with a lively musical tribute.

The performance symbolized cross-regional harmony, blending strings and cultural pride. 'Bu Bu Gao,' known for its joyful rhythm, became a metaphor for progress—reflecting Macao’s journey since 1999. \"Music bridges hearts,\" said one participant, highlighting how art unites young talents across borders.

This celebration isn’t just about history—it’s a nod to the future. As Gen Z artists reimagine heritage tunes, they’re writing a new playlist for cultural diplomacy.
